11 6. HISTORIC INTEREST RATES (Floating Rate Notes only) 7. PERFORMANCE AND EFFECT ON VALUE OF INVESTMENT (i) PERFORMANCE OF FORMULA, EXPLANATION OF EFFECT ON VALUE OF INVESTMENT (Structured Notes only) Investment in Notes including fixed interest rate involves risks linked to the fluctuation of the market rates which could have negative effect on the value of these Notes. Payments (whether in respect of principal and/or interest and whether at maturity or otherwise) on the Notes are linked to the occurrence or non occurrence of one or more credit event(s) relating to one or more reference entity(ies). If the calculation agent determines that one or more credit event(s) has(have) occurred, the obligation of the Issuer to pay the principal on the maturity date will be replaced by (i) an obligation to pay other amounts (either fixed or calculated by reference to the value of the deliverable asset(s) of the relevant reference entity, and in each case, which may be lower than the par value of the Notes on the relevant date), and/or (ii) an obligation to deliver the deliverable asset. Furthermore, credit linked notes paying interest(s) may cease to produce interest(s) at the credit event determination date or earlier. During the lifetime of the Notes, the market value of these Notes may be lower than the invested capital. Furthermore, an insolvency of the Issuer and/or the Guarantor may cause a total loss of the invested capital. The attention of the investors is drawn to the fact that they could sustain an entire or a partial loss of their investment.

B.19/ B.4b: 2014 was another challenging year for the economy, with global activity posting only moderate growth that varied by region. This trend is expected to carry over into 2015, which is shaping up to deliver a weaker-than-expected global economic recovery amid myriad uncertainties both on the geopolitical front and on the commodity and forex markets. The euro zone is struggling to return to more dynamic growth, thus slowing the reduction of public deficits. Interest rates should remain at record lows, but the deflationary risk should be kept under control by the intervention of the ECB which has announced the implementation of a more accommodative monetary policy and the use of its balance sheet to support growth. The depreciation of the euro and falling oil prices should help boost exports and stimulate domestic demand. The US economy should stay on a positive track and the Fed is expected to begin tightening its monetary policy mid-year. Emerging countries have entered a phase of more moderate growth, in particular China. Russia s economy is struggling with the consequences of the Ukrainian crisis coupled with the drop in commodity prices. From a regulatory standpoint, 2014 saw the implementation of the Banking Union. The European Central Bank took the helm of the Single Supervisory Mechanism, overseeing some 130 euro zone banks, with the aim of strengthening the banking system, restoring the confidence of economic operators, harmonising banking supervision rules and reducing the link between banks and their national

22 authorities. In terms of regulatory ratios, the Group can already meet the new requirements.
